While initially they had very few cards, they received further support in ''[[King's Court]]''.
The three main members are "[[Queen's Knight]]", "[[King's Knight]]", and "[[Jack's Knight]]". There are two monsters that can be Summoned through a combination of the three: "[[Arcana Knight Joker]]" and "[[Royal Straight Slasher]]". Two additional combinations were released later that didn't appear in the manga or anime: "[[Arcana Extra Joker]]" and "[[Arcana Triumph Joker]]".
==Members=====Original===Each Musketeer has the motif of a face card from a deck of [[wikipedia:Playing card|standard playing card]], with "[[Arcana King's Knight Joker (character)|Arcana Knight JokerKing's]]" appears as a character in , "[[Queen's Knight|Queen's]]" and "[[YuJack's Knight]]", representing one of the three face cards in the deck. {| class="wikitable" style="text-Gi-Ohalign:center"!
